  11. Parity-Violating Asymmetry 1. Measure asymmetry for each pair of pulses, 2. Correct for detector response to beam helicity differences: beam intensity, position, angle, energy R-L differences coefficients determined by 1. fitting detector asymmetry to beam R-L differences, or 2. “dithering” beam and observing detector response 3. Obtain physics asymmetry: backgrounds beam polarization David Relyea, E158 Results

  12. Experimental Challenges 0. Measure a 100 ppb effect with a 10 ppb error 1. Electron Beam i) high intensity - 500 kW beam! ii) stability - intensity jitter <1% - spotsize jitter <10% - position jitter <10% iii) small left-right helicity differences - intensity - position/angle - energy iv) high (>80%) polarization 2. Electron Beam monitoring i) toroid resolution: < 30 ppm per pulse ii) BPM resolution: < 1 m per pulse iii) energy resolution: < 50 ppm per pulse 3. Liquid Hydrogen Target i) target density fluctuations: <10-4 per pulse ii) 18% radiation length - absorbs 500W beam power iii) Safety (largest LH2 target in the world) 4. Detectors i) detector resolution: <100 ppm per pulse ii) multiple backgrounds iii) radiation damage iv) linearity < 1% David Relyea, E158 Results
